Around SBN: The Most Dangerous Division in Sports

Rex Grossman , Larry Johnson , Willie Parker , Competition or trade bait ?

To be or not to be , that is the question

Star-divide

After sitting here getting drunk and thinking of all the recent post and rumors, I began to wonder if this could be a possibility , We all seem to come to the conclusion that the signings of Rex , Larry and Willie are for depth and for competition , Not sure if this could happen but...... ( im drunk lol, bare with me)  maybe we have signed these players for trade bait  in the draft , im sure we could trade 1 or 2 of the 3 for a pick or two in the draft with out hvng to trade Moss , Cooley or Davis , hell maybe even a second rounder for Carlos and Willie or Carlos and Larry , ( sorry Carlos) I just dont think anyone will give up a second round pick for Carlos himself , We all know that having two second round picks could help us out alot , So if this were to happen , My picks would be if avaliable , 1st round Okung, if hes not avaliable , trade 1st rounder for a second and 3rd round pick , IMO no need to go defense in the 1st round because they are good enough to get the job done ( top ten defense ) im sure, pick up Gaither , from Baltimore , and second round go O -lineman and RB ,3rd (if applies)go LB just for shits and giggles, 4th take a shot at another RB to give ourselves a little bit of comfort that we may have a good future player in the backfield , as for the quarterback position i think we should stick with a Jason and Colt competition ( good enough for now) and with this formula we may be making post about our chances in the playoffs sooner than later.

This doesn't make a lot of sense.

These guys were all available already. If other teams had wanted them, they would have signed them without giving up draft picks. We didn’t sweep these guys away by paying a lot or trade for them.

Correct sir.

Also I think it’s very likely that either Johnson or Parker won’t be on the opening season roster. Shanny is simply trying to light a fire under Portis’ ass.

I'm worried about the beer supply. After this case, and the other case, there's only one case left- Barney Gumble

Competition plain and simple

And with all the negativity towards Grossman, I think he may push the hardest for a starting role over Campbell. They are 2 different types of QBs, Campbell may be better in some systems but in this system which is known by Grossman he may be the better QB.
Johnson and/or Parker have an opportunity if Portis decides he’s going to be the one touch back he played like last year, one touch and to the ground. This is the New England model for maintaining a team, soon it will be the Redskins model.

agree w/ everyone above

The world looks mighty different when you're peeking out your belly button

Agree

We just got those guys for free, so nobody is going to give us anything for them. They were brought in for competition and depth. Some could have slight use as “sweeteners”.

Pretty much agree with most of the above...LMAO

at “I’m drunk,lol, so BARE with me”…..well I doubt very seriously you are my type but let me know if it works I might have to use that line someday…….ha…I needed a chuckle in the midst of all this Mc Nabb stuff.
